Eddie Alvarez gets sued by Bellator

Why is he a slave? "Free Alvarez" Bellator's Contracts are Shady! I think when its all said and done, Bellator didn't really match the Contract. UFC has PPV Shares, Bellator Doesn't. How can they match something they can't offer?

that isn't it Eddie's managment offered a contract to Bellator that was less money then the projected UFC contract and was still denied by Bellator.

Im pretty Sure the UFC gave him a PPV cut like Reem and Lombard (you dont have to be a champ to get PPV cut). This was smart on the UFC's part because Bellator isn't in the PPV market yet, and cant trully match that.

Zuffa can give him a PPV cut right off the bat, he doesn't have to be a champ or even main eventing.

Bellator can also offer him a PPV cut too even if they haven't done any PPV yet, and they can even justify it by saying that there is no guarantee that Eddie even fights on a Zuffa PPV since more
Than half of their programming is on free/cable TV.

Of course even if Bellator starts doing PPV the odds that it hits anything close to a ZUFFA PPV is ridiculous. So Eddie could claim that it's still not a match.

It's a fabrication that Bellator acts like they can be on PPV. They don't have a PPV model. They are going to be on Spike TV next year. They don't have any PPV deals lined up. So acting like they can get on PPV with the right fight seems like a fabrication. And even if they did get on PPV they couldn't touch the PPV numbers that UFC likely can. Why do you think UFC fighters like getting a PPV cut? That likely means big PPV numbers if they are on a UFC PPV.

How much could Affliction get on PPV? Like 80K buys?

It's interesting though, Bellator and Rebney use a lot of lawyer speak to look like choir boys. Didn't they say they withdrew the non-compete period after Eddie's last fight to expedite this process?

He acts innocent about the whole lawsuit thing. He was like "in minutes both sides sued each other." Yeah both sides that includes you and Bellator.
